Noticeable Change Through Tooth Replacement

Posted

Older couple NPBCAQuality prosthodontic care includes making sure that you are aware of all of your options in the replacement of your natural tooth. Extractions are sometimes necessary for the ongoing lasting health of your smile. You have the power to determine your specific form of smile renewal, as there are multiple different ways that you can approach your situation. A dental bridge can help you renew your bite function through the placement of a prosthetic over the existing gap. This new solution is tethered to the rest of your mouth through dental crowns on the teeth surrounding your gap.

For others, a dental implant procedure could be helpful. This process includes the initial placement of a dental post within the jaw bone. Your body interacts positively with the titanium in this segment, allowing it to thrive within your natural mouth. The permanent attachment of this foundation can help with additional instances of tooth loss due to age or illness. Emerge triumphant from your extraction with a beautiful new functional prosthodontic solution from Balboa Dental Surgery in Newport Beach, CA. (more…)

A Flexible Solution For Your Needs

Posted

Curly NPBCAEvery smile has its own specific needs and strengths. If you have lost a tooth due to infection or physical causes, it is crucial to examine how to best replace the missing material. If there is the possibility of future loss, then a prosthodontic implant procedure with a biointegrated titanium post may be a more suitable solution than other methods of repair. For example, a dental bridge relies upon crowns on either side of the gap. If these teeth are vulnerable to damage from infection or disease, the additional stress could lead to the loss of additional teeth.

Others may be planning for additional loss due to age or illness. Taking positive moves when you have the most time to plan can help you to have a solution that looks beautiful and just feels right. At Balboa Dental Surgery in Newport Beach, CA, we work to achieve comfortable solutions with vigorous bites.

Discover Relief From Oral Discomfort

Posted

Comfort NPBCAIf you struggle with the appearance and feel of your smile, know that you are not alone. One of the most common sources of lack of self-confidence comes from how we look. Since our mouths are one of the first ways we connect with new people, issues with confidence can stem from dental concerns. 

Beyond self-doubt is a physical feeling of discomfort with your smile. This can come as a result of a variety of issues including the overnight grinding of teeth. Known as bruxism, this condition can cause serious damage to the enamel.

Another avenue for common dental discomfort lies in infection. When bacteria invade our gums or the interior of our teeth, it can lead to serious pain. Not only can this situation feel awful, but it can put the future of your smile at risk of further degradation. At Balboa Dental Surgery in Newport Beach, CA, we are devoted to giving you the necessary care to ensure that your smile feels and looks its best.
